Question

A shopkkeeper buys a dinner set for Rs 1200 and marks it 80% above the cost price. If he gives 15% discount on it, find the marked price .

Answer 1

CP of dinner set =1200
80 % of CP= Rs(80/100*1200)=960
So,MP= CP+960 = 1200+960=2160
Discount %=15%
So,SP= rs(100-Discount %/100)*MP=1836
So, MP=100*SP/(100-Discount %)
=100*1836/(100-15)=2160

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

CP= 1200

MP=1200 of 80%

$1200 \times \frac{80}{100 } \\ 12 \times 80 \\ 960$
